This month's Curator's Object is a bottle of Fleet River Water! ✨

As part of our collaboration with New End School we asked students to contribute objects for display in our latest exhibiton, 'Hampstead Vanished and Imagined'.

They chose to collect a bottle of water from the River Fleet, which flows through a basement channel beneath the school, celebrating one of New End's most distinctive and memorable features. The River Fleet is one of London's lost rivers and was gradually absorbed into the underground sewer network during the nineteenth century. One of its sources flows from the Vale of Health on Hampstead Heath towards Camden Town.

We thank them for sharing these items with us!

Visit our 'Hampstead Vanished and Imagined' exhibition to learn more about Hampstead past and present!

🕰️ House open Wed-Fri* & Sun, 10am-4pm (*occasional early Friday closures, see website for details)
